EXPLANATORY NOTE – DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
On October 11, 2011, Worthington Enterprises, Inc., formerly known as Worthington Industries, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Registrant”), filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-177237) (the “Prior Registration Statement”) to register 500,000 common shares, without par value, of the Registrant (the “Common Shares”) for offer or sale pursuant to the Worthington Industries, Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Incentive Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Prior Plan”).
The Registrant has adopted the Worthington Enterprises, Inc. 2025 Equity Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Plan”), and the Registrant’s shareholders approved the Plan at the Registrant’s annual meeting of shareholders on September 23, 2025. Effective on September 23, 2025, the Registrant will not issue any new awards under the Prior Plan. Accordingly, this Post-Effective Amendment is filed to withdraw from registration all Common Shares registered under the Prior Registration Statement that remain unissued under the Prior Plan other than Common Shares issuable upon the exercise or settlement of awards outstanding under the Prior Plan.
